WOW that's a major hatch...
LOL, I'm telling myself I'm starting the year slowly because the breeder flocks are not laying too well just yet.
It is basically a barred leghorn, but a little calmer. They are my best overall layers, but their eggs are white. I use them also to make black sexlinks that lay light blue eggs by putting a black or lavender Ameraucana roo with the Cali Grey pullets. Those black sexlinks are very popular with my customers. They are almost indistinguishable from a black Ameraucana, but 100% sexable, unlike the true Ameraucanas that take a long time to sex accurately. I have to band the pullets to be sure I can tell them apart from my pure blacks, they have the dark legs and muffs that make Ams so distinctive.
Oh sorry. I was just excited to get my first setting of the season into the incubator.Isn't there a contest for guessing how many eggs are set? Try not to post all the actual numbers...
No need to be sorry!
I just think I remember ronott1 mentioning a contest... and many were posting their numbers, lol...
